Betting odds on BET365 currently to win the tournament outright:

England 4/1
Germany 9/2
France 5/1
Portugal 6/1
Belgium 18/1

Seriously unless it's just insurance betting from Scottish, Welsh and Irish punters who on earth is betting on England to win this tournament after watching these two and a half games, it is money down the drain.

Portugal at 6s is a decent price at least.
For all the performances so far, they’re going to get the nice side of the draw

Dixon saying you don’t change your system after a couple of bad games but he experimented with a RB in midfield in the tournament. Guess that’s ok.

Straight away he’s moving off the ball and demanding it at his feet.

Southgate should have taken a page out of De la fuente’s book.

Rotate more of the squad since you’re already qualified.

The international break back in October last year when Southgate brought Phillips and Henderson, that should have been the time to experiment with Trent, Gallagher whatever. He could have ironed it out then and just started this tournament with a balanced midfield as he should have. He’s wasted 2.5 games of tournament football faffing about with the midfield.

Do this consider that England and Germany are now one Hojlund's goal from facing each other in 2nd round?

Mainoo's doing really well. Much more movement than the rest of this England team so far

Very cowardly from managment to keep some players and take out Gallagher. Not that Gallagher have been great but he isn't worst player in that midfield.
